Debra McCormack regularly sits down with corporate directors to help them gauge how independent their board is.
“Boards are often bringing us in to have these facilitated discussions,” says McCormack, global board effectiveness and sustainability lead with Accenture. “It’s because they’re hard. So they say, ‘Debbie, will you come in and help us talk about, do we have the right level of independence, and are we meeting the expectations that are required of us?’”
